Glenn Hartman appears in...

Glenn Hartman, accordion and piano, founding member of the New Orleans Klezmer Allstars, “This genre-crossing, heroically nutty Crescent City ensemble has a raucous, wild spin on the
popular Eastern European revival.” Billboard

Glenn Hartman is the accordion player for and one of the founding members of the internationally acclaimed New Orleans Klezmer Allstars. Hurricane Katrina forced his relocation to the Bay Area where he met the exciting and accomplished musicians who make up The Klezmer Playboys. Energy, energy and more energy are what defines The Playboys interpretation of Klezmer, a centuries old Yiddish dance music. Glenn’s accordion, plus trombone, electric bass and drums give The Playboys an almost ska-like rock, funk sound.
